Remembering ‘True Names’ Author Vernor Vinge: Known for popularizing the term “singularity,” the cypherpunk writer, who died this week ...
coindesk.com/consensus-magazine/2024/03/22/remembering-true-names-author-vernor-vinge/
Quick Glance: Vernor Vinge, Pioneer of Cyberspace and Singularity, Passes at 79
- Vinge is credited as the first author to describe an immersive cyberspace, which he outlined in his 1979 novella "True Names" – five years before William Gibson’s Neuromancer brought the idea to the mainstream.
- Suffice to say, True Names made a significant impact, with its elements becoming foundational to SciFi and CompSci.
- His theory of “The Singularity” – an event after which human history changes course – was widely admired and even became the theme of a University in Silicon Valley.
- Vinge’s novels often used concepts from computer science and were multiple award winners, including the Hugo Award for the year’s best science fiction novel.
